Authors' objectives:

Meniscal allograft transplantation is a surgical procedure that involves grafting a donor meniscus into the knee of a recipient. The objective of a meniscal allograft transplantation is to preserve the important role that the meniscus plays in knee stability and functioning by replacing a damaged meniscus with a transplanted one, or to reintroduce a meniscus in cases of an unsatisfactory meniscectomy outcome.
